Cleo's POV
"I can't eat this, it taste like rubber, it's completely burnt, Mum used to make it so much better" Kim complained on her breakfast that I had cooked her "hey! If you don't like it make you're own breakfast" I put me some pancakes on my plate.

"Ah! My two sweet perfectly mannered daughters, I need you're help, what do you think? Check, or the blue?" He came in holding up two nice looking shirts "blue" Kim answered "interesting" he said putting down the checkered shirt.

"I would've thought the red would bring out my natural rugged complexion" I looked over at Kim in wonder, as he put on the shirt "by the way, if you wanted to impress someone, would flowers or chocolate be best?" He said, and I decided to say something about this.

"Dad, what's going on?" I furrowed my eyebrows at him "what do you mean?" He said in stupidity "you work on a fishing boat, why do you wanna wear one of you're best shirts, and what's with the flowers and chocolate?" I questioned him, walking closer towards him.

"Never hurts to impress, Cleo" he buttoned up his shirt "I've gotta run" he said dryly, and grabbed his stuff and left "he couldn't be, could he?" I turned to Kim who looked more confused then me.

I stared at her, and twitched my lips.

...

I walked to my dads boat because he had forgotten his lunch, when I had spotted him, I jogged over to him, he was ordering one of his co workers to do something.

"Dad! You forgot you're lunch" I held it up, and walked to him "Cleo? Thanks! But I'm going out to lunch today, fancy restaurant silver service, all of it" I looked down in disappointment.

"Wow, that's unusual" I said.

"Yeah, you don't think this after shave is to much, I haven't worn it in years" I looked at where he had shown me "no, it's-it's fine, dad, is there anything you want to tell me?" I questioned him.

"All in good times, Cleo, all in good time! I better get going I have work to do, now off you go, off you go" I stared at him blankly, as he shooed me away, and I listened to him.

When I was walking, I saw this beautiful lady, walk towards my dad, with an beautiful dress on, I watched her throughout the whole walk, I looked at her in disbelief, when I saw my dad hang her flowers, and gave him a hug.

I shook my head, not believing this my mouth hung open, as I scooted back, but a little to far, because I had fallen into the water, I gasped, and stayed down in the water.

...

Lewis's POV

"Going fishing, Lewis?" Wilfred looked at me while I walked to him "oh, it's more than fishing, Wilfred, it's about hunting you're own food, man against beast, barely a survival" I sat down my fishing stuff, at the bar.

"Uh, could I grab a couple of jam muffins to go" I stopped him before he was leaving "sorry, all out" he said walking away, I frowned in disappointment.

"You need my help" Charlotte came up besides me with a basket "I know you always go fishing Saturday mornings, so brought you some food" she sat down an basket "oh, wow! Great" I said taking a look inside of it.

"I hope you've got enough fishing gear for two?" She looked up at me with innocent eyes, I shut her basket, and gave her a small smile "never knew you were interested" I said.

"Are you crazy? I love fishing, I go all the time" she gave me an big smile with an hand on her hip "yeah? Ok, come on" I grabbed my stuff, as she followed me.

...

I threw my fishing rod in the ocean, and sat it down, leaving it alone till some fish bite, I walked over to Charlotte, and sat down "one night, I spent seven hours locked in an epic battle with this two kilo salmon, it was like an game of chess, but I got my man...I mean fish, what about you?" I looked over at Charlotte explaining my fish battle story.
